Our take on the 172J-10308

This is a 2-way ball valve assembly from Johnson Controls' 603 Series, built for hot or chilled water and up to 50% glycol in fan coil units, convectors, unit conditioners, radiation and reheat coils. It pairs a normally open, fail-safe actuator with 2-10 Vdc proportional control, so the valve drives closed on power loss and modulates with a 0-10 V or 2-10 V building controller. It holds 200 psi close-off, which suits most hydronic terminal units. Against basic on/off zone valves, it adds proportional modulation and fail-safe operation; against larger globe-valve assemblies, it is a simpler, lower-flow terminal-unit valve rather than a main-plant control valve.

Pros
  • Proportional 2-10 Vdc control instead of simple on/off
  • Normally open, fail-safe action on power loss
  • 200 psi close-off handles typical hydronic pump pressures
  • Ball design gives low pressure drop and full-port flow
  • Works with hot water, chilled water and up to 50% glycol
Cons
  • Requires a 24 V transformer and analog controller to operate
  • Fail-safe normally open means the coil heats or cools on power loss
  • Ball valves are not ideal for fine throttling at very low flows
  • Actuator adds bulk and wiring compared with a manual ball valve

About the 172J-10308

The 172J-10308 is a 603 Series 2-way ball valve with an actuator assembly. It controls hot or chilled water and glycol solutions of up to 50% in convectors, fan coil units, unit conditioners, radiation and reheat coils.

The actuator takes a 2-10 Vdc control signal. It is normally open and fail safe, and it provides 200 psi close-off.

Questions and answers

What does normally open, fail-safe mean here?
The valve opens when the actuator loses power, so the coil keeps getting water. That is the safe position for heating coils and for freeze protection, but it means a chilled-water coil will keep cooling during an outage.
What control signal does the actuator take?
It takes a 2-10 Vdc proportional signal from a building controller, so the valve modulates rather than switching fully open or closed. It needs a 24 V power supply in addition to the control signal.
Can it handle glycol?
Yes, up to 50% glycol solution, along with hot and chilled water. Higher glycol concentrations are outside its rating.
What is 200 psi close-off?
It is the differential pressure the actuator can shut the valve against. Pumps or coils that push more than 200 psi across the closed valve can force it open.
Where is this valve normally installed?
On fan coil units, convectors, unit conditioners, radiation and reheat coils. It is a terminal-unit valve, not a main-plant or large riser control valve.
Does it need a transformer?
Yes. The actuator runs on 24 V, so the panel needs a 24 V transformer plus the 2-10 Vdc controller output. It does not wire directly to line voltage.
